I had just bought my first house and I was pleased with how life had unexpectedly turned around for me. I had no idea that a year and a half later, I would be living in New York, engaged and raising a baby girl.

And here I stand...Where will I be in two years from now?

One thing I do know is that I'll be married. Still sounds strange to me. Other than that, I'm not really sure.

Will we have another little one on our hands?

Will we be in a different state or settle in New York? What will I be doing for work?

The possibilities are really endless. These thoughts give me motivation to reach out for things that I want.

I want to be doing things today that will help me a year from now....two years from now.

Two years seems so far away and yet it goes by in the blink of an eye.

Today, I am starting on things that I want to accomplish in the next two years. I will face my fears and just go for the things that I want.

I'm going to love harder than I did two years ago. I'm going to live stronger. I'm going to try longer.

You're so beautiful! Glad that you aren't being hit too hard by the storms. This was a beautiful post. Isn't it awesome that there is something in blogging that helps bring about the better in us. I've found that true as well. Sounds like your life is headed in an amazing direction. I'm so excited for you!

We were spared by Sandy here in RI...thankfully, just a few hours without power. I love this post, it's amazing how keeping a diary of your life can help you look back and reflect, it can help you see how far you have come and how far you have to go. Have a wonderful day

Two years seems like such a long time thinking about it right now....but really, it goes by in a blink of an eye! Two years ago, I was eagerly planning my wedding. Now I can hardly remember not being married! :P
